It's also possible that we just couldn't hear the audience as well as we should have been able to due to audio setup. Roy Wood Jr is damn funny indeed.
Most underrated comedian and, apparently, political voice in this country. He's WAYYYYY better at what he does compared to his popularity. With all due respect to Trevor Noah, he's doing a fine job, but if Roy Wood Jr. took over as the head of The Daily Show, it would get a lot funnier and perhaps more insightful.
Anderson Cooper has been known to stand on a battlefield. When was the last time you stood on an active BATTLEFIELD BEING SHOT AT, JUST TO DELIVER THE NEWS TO YOU SO YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD.
If the sitting President appeared, as before, this would've made it to CSPAN. "There is no CSPAN Demand, because there is no demand" Flip the script and see what happens.
why is everyone calling the audience trash? you cant hear their reaction because there are no microphones placed to pick up their every laugh, unless they do it loudly
They have no sense of humor. They don’t know a funny joke when I hear it. No sense of humor. It’s so quiet in there you can hear pin drop. That’s just sad.🥺😢
First, this is proof that C-SPAN has given up, the headline is 2016, the body is 2017. Second, this is a video of the radio and television correspondent's association dinner, Hasan Minaj did the White House correspondent's dinner. Oddly, Hasan also performed at the 2015 RTCA dinner, and both videos are titled the 2016 RTCA dinner. Reporters like to eat on C-SPAN.
It's so sad that the comedian who was pro-democrat even back in 2017 was saying "Did we lose fairly? Maybe not buy we can't prove it. We lost..." shows the stark difference between then and now...
Roy Wood Jr. is my imaginary black Dad.
?
Really fam?
Actually - his voice makes the whole thing a lot drier.
Shame the crowd was poorly miked.
What an absolutely goldmine of jokes ;D Too bad the crowd was not really getting it
Underrated piece, dead crowd...
That crowd is too scared to laugh.
Damn shame about his voice. This stuff was funny, but the audience wasn't feeling it.
So true
It's also possible that we just couldn't hear the audience as well as we should have been able to due to audio setup. Roy Wood Jr is damn funny indeed.
His flag pin is upside down and that's yet another reason why I adore Roy Wood Jr.
A good example of how the comedian is always the smartest person in the room. If you ever go to a comedy show, remember that.
FrankieTheWaffle, actually, the comedian is the only one all people can understand, that's why he may seem smartest.
That’s stupid
The voice made this whole thing even funnier somehow. Just the awkward atmosphere there
What is the RTCA dinner? He is a funny comedian but the audience is dead.

If Roy took over daily show, it wouldn't be the same Roy here, daily show is way more complicated.
He might get a chance now….

Loving this guy! Smart and funny. Probably a bunch of Reps in the audience and/or laughs not picking up on the mics.
You go Roy!
Roy Wood Jr on point
Roy been funny for yrs 😂😂😂😂. Love from Bham Al.
This man is solid. Needs his own show. He still showed up
These are some quality jokes 🤣🤣
The audience is entirely too sedate, but he did a good job.
What a champ 👏
He is so good!

Flip the script and see what happens.
This guy is a genius.
Absolutely Excellent

Amazing!!!
why is everyone calling the audience trash? you cant hear their reaction because there are no microphones placed to pick up their every laugh, unless they do it loudly
super funny!
actually there was a lot of serious stuff here, especially at the end when he spoke about trust and doing the right thing
He throwing paper on floor lol hes so funny
“To get the rest of that thought, you have to be a subscriber. “😂
Trust doesn't come from the top, it comes from within.
Love this guy love from England white old woman
The people in there are dead.....
Roy Wood.Jr is a funny 🐱 cat voice and all the fun😀
They have no sense of humor. They don’t know a funny joke when I hear it. No sense of humor. It’s so quiet in there you can hear pin drop. That’s just sad.🥺😢
there is a c-span joke in the fact that the video title says 2016 and the discription says 2017
Swap that
He wasn't horrible but he totally bombed for the audience.
I thought this was new...forgive me yall lol
Come on Roy! You could has said: I'm the guy who hold up the signs at trump rallys or Ben Carson with the voice.
2016?
Cheat To Win same. Didn’t Hasan Minaj do 2016??
This is 2017

Stellar!
What’s the RTCA?
See there!
This crowd sucks!
He's just too good for that crowd--he's hitting some nerves

"Some people choose themselves over our country." Like Rachel Maddow. $30,000 per day vs. truth. Thanks for nothing.
Sounds to me like someone is jealous of Rachel
@@johnlewis7333 Then, your hearing is off.
You aren't mad at Hillary, Roy? How? She has at least SOME responsibility for where we are, right?
She literally had nothing to do with where we were because she had no power. She lost. And she wasn't even relevant since 22yrs before.
